Barbecue Pineapple Chicken**

1 tablespoon olive oil
2 garlic cloves, thinly sliced
1 (28 ounce) can diced tomatoes, drained
1/3 cup Classic Delectables Pineapple Jalapeno jam
1 tablespoon balsamic vinegar
2 1/2 teaspoons kosher salt
3/4 teaspoon black pepper
4 lbs chicken, cut into pieces

step 1 : Heat oven to 400°F
step 2 : Heat the oil in a medium saucepan over medium-high heat. Add the garlic and cook for 1 minute.
step 3 : Stir in the tomatoes, jam, vinegar, 1 1/2 teaspoons of the salt, and 1/2 teaspoon of the pepper. Simmer until the sauce has thickened slightly, about 15 minutes.
step 4 : Meanwhile, rinse the chicken and pat it dry with paper towels. Arrange the pieces in a 9-by-13-inch baking dish and season with the remaining salt and pepper.
step 5 : Pour the barbecue sauce over the chicken. Roast, spooning the sauce over the chicken once, until the chicken is cooked through, about 1 hour.
